Some place I've always wanted to go. Very good.

Met up with other Photography Club members as we prepared to take a docent-led tour of Frank Lloyd Wright's collection of beautiful buildings. Docent Frank Drake was a wealth of information, facts, and figures concerning this amazing man's vision of a future America. Truly a...More

Amazing architecture tour

We took the comprehensive walking tour (2.5 hours) of the campus with a very well-informed guide, Jack C. We didn't go in all the buildings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright but spent time in most and saw the exteriors of the others. The tour is...More

Great Architecture!

The campus of Florida Southern College is like visiting a living museum of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture. What imaginative buildings are on the campus! There's also a Frank Lloyd Wright house that you can visit there.

Love lacrosse games

Beautiful campus! Haven’t been inside too many of the buildings, but the lacrosse field is great, we attended all the home games last season and plan on doing so again next season. Coach Ward is a great guy.

Where to Stay? (2 Replies)

I'm confused about location. Is staying right on the beach the way to go? We will have a rental car, but want to be in a location where there are things to do during the day or at night. We are looking for a nice hotel. We have to travel to Florida Southern College in Lakeland during the week of March 10, for our daughter's softball games, but will have lots of free time, so we thought Clearwater would be good. Or should we stay in Tampa?

We will be visiting Florida Southern College on Monday and would like to have your recommendations for a nice hotel nearby. We are Marriott rewards members and are looking to stay at a Marriott.

This is a seldom visited Forum ( about one post a month) as Lakeland is a small town and not very touristy, so I might help by saying I only know of two Marriott brands there , a Courtyard and a Residence Inn very close to one another and both about 3 miles from the college I have never stayed in either but I think both are fairly nice.. It's mainly a town of motels like La Quinta and Holiday Inn Express. The college is lovely. We often travel to Lakeland to see friends.

Hotel for college visit AND scenery/fun? (26 Replies)

We're taking my son to visit University of Tampa as well as Florida Southern College (in Lakeland). It's easy enough for me to use the web to find hotels near the university, but I'm wondering if we might find it more enjoyable to stay somewhere near "the water" (any water) for the scenic views and maybe some fun in late afternoons and evenings. Or is all of this an inconvenient drive (in traffic) relatively far from UT and our way to Lakeland, meaning we should just stay somewhere near...More

Rocky Point is the best place to stay in the Tampa area, imo. You can easily get to downtown Tampa/UT area or the Courtney Causeway will take you straight to Clearwater Beach. There is the Courtney Causeway trail that runs through Rocky Point, right alongside the water, for walking/jogging/biking. Traffic won't be bad on a regular weekend. During the week, it is only a hassle during the morning and afternoon rush hours.
